Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I hate Chelsea but I'd rather them or City win it tbh.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

City still have the Everton away fixture which could undo them.

Chelsea will be kicking themselves over some of the unexpected results they've had in the the last month or two. That 2 points over 2 games is a lot. I don't think they can win the league but I do have a feeling that they may sneak the European Cup. Could see Arsenal out of the CL next year.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

It's certainly interesting..... I would have preferred it less interesting I must admit.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

:rofl:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I think your lot will do it. They might have to put 8 past the Toon in the last match, but that shouldn't be a problem given the way we've fallen apart since flogging Cabaye and pissing off Ben Arfa.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I think Madrid might win the Champions League. :thumbup:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Yeah.

I prefer finals where the teams are from different countries.

All that being said I'm glad Chelski are out.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

:thumbup:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Not to be rude or pedantic but that’s pretty funny really as there are actually two different teams in Madrid. Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid both of whom are playing in the Champions League final this year. It’s like in Manchester, people always think of Manchester United but there two major teams, Manchester Untied and Manchester City. Its the same in London with, Tottenham Hotspurs and Chelsea. But anyway it should be a good game. :thumbup:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Ahem. I think I knew that.

It's the very first time that two teams from the same city have been in the Big Final.

Better IMHO for it to be Madrid rather than London or, God forbid, Manchester.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

There's only one big team in Newcastle right? Is there a smaller one in the city like in London with Layton Orient?

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Leyton Orient. But yes and no. Just across the Tyne there's a club in Gateshead who are climbing slowly towards League 2.

Other than that there's only S*******d nearby.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Chelsea and arsenal:)

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

IMHO i always thought my boys might struggle against Atletico, needed a away goal in the first leg me thinks.
Anyway guite happy to of got to the semi finals. Just thinking will i ever see that lot from N17 ever playing in the champions league.
Have a good one.;)

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Your boys? Are you a pederast?

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Just need an Oligarch to turn up and money launder and any club can play in the CL ;)

Perhaps one day you'll do it off your own backs with balanced books;)

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Novo I had to google that because i did not understand the meaning of the word,no surprise there i am a Chelsea fan. But the answer is no i am not.;)

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Sorry to spoil your Sunday morning croissant and coffee Novocastrian but how would you feel about Moyes being the next manager at the Toon :eek:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

The only thing I have against Pardew is that he's proved unable to deal sensibly with Hatem Ben Arfa, clearly the most skilled player in the squad. I'm even prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt on that one because Ben Arfa can be a bit selfish and refuses to contribute defensively when needed.

My issue is with Ashley.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Palace you little beauties. :thumbsup:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

-1. I'd sooner have seen Liverpool as champions than effing Citeh.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Ha ha let's hope Suarez cries like this at the WC

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I couldn't care less about city but if the, erm, Liverpool had won you'd never hear the last of it, how brilliant they were, that they're the best fans, blah blah naffing blah. They're nauseating when they're rubbish, they'd be indescribable if they won. :thumbdown:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Au contraire. They're not from London or Manchester.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

:)

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I agree. Its been awful listening to them carping on the last few weeks. Would ruin the whole summer if we had to listen to them naffing going on about their glorious run in,brill Brendon, king Kenny,twenty titles, etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Not a lota Liverpool love on ere then ? ;)

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Plus, you probably empathize with them as this was the biggest title capitulation since Newcastle did it in the 90s. :p

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Even a little would be too much. :D

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Awh

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Laughing at the bin dippers :rofl:

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Liverpool's frailties showed through in the end.

I thought it was a certainty after they beat City but their weak defense returned to haunt them in the end.

They should be delighted with Champions League. They'll be seeded low so it will make for an interesting group which is rare.

Sadly we are due for a spell of City-Chelsea dominance and rivalry in the english game. An era of vast money laundering.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

The last non money bags team to win the Prem?

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

I would say Leeds United and the old first division.

Manchester United used to win the league within their means. You could argue they don't know with the Glazier debt.

Tottenham, Arsenal and Everton all self sufficient clubs.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Not sure I agree with Leeds, transfers in prior to that title win.

John Lukic £1,000,000†1990
Gary McAllister £1,000,000 1990

Rod Wallace - Southampton, £1,600,000, 1991â€
Tony Dorigo - Chelsea, £1,300,000, 1991
Steve Hodge - Nottingham Forest, £900,000, 1991
Eric Cantona - France Nîmes, £900,000, 1992[2]

Decent amount of money for the time?

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Fair point.

Also makes one realise how ridiculous football inflation has been in the last 24 years.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
 

Get in City. :thumbup:
